Lagos trader loses N5m buried underground(Photo)

An unidentified trader was said to have lost huge sums of money buried in her shop to the fire incident that razed Daleko Market, Mushin, Lagos State on Sunday.A Punch journalist could see the huge hole in the shop where the money was said to have been buried.
One of the traders, said the trader was in the habit of keeping her money in the underground, instead of a bank.

“The woman usually keeps money in her shop, and would use her goods to cover it.But we are not sure if the whole money was destroyed by the fire. The theory here is that those that arrived first at the market saw the money and stole it.”But an attempt to speak with the said shop owner was unsuccessful as she was said to have gone to Alausa with other market leaders.
